[2025 Liuyang Attraction] Travel Guide for Liuyang Fenghuang Gorge Rafting (Updated Jun)

Located in Longfu Town, Liuyang, Hunan, Phoenix Gorge Rafting is renowned as the "most thrilling rafting experience in Eastern Hunan." Spanning a 3.8-kilometer natural river course with a drop of 198 meters, this nearly 90-minute adrenaline-pumping ride is perfect for thrill-seekers. For self-driving visitors, navigate to "Phoenix Gorge Rafting Visitor Center," which is about a 1.5-hour drive from the Chang-Zhu-Tan area. Alternatively, take a high-speed train to Liuyang North Station and transfer via shuttle bus for convenience. The rafting course is divided into two sections: the "Warrior Raft" and the "Family Raft." The first section features continuous steep slopes and S-shaped bends, while the latter has gentler waters, ideal for families. It is recommended to wear quick-dry clothing and non-slip rubber shoes. The scenic area provides helmets, life jackets, and professional coaches to accompany each raft. Along the way, there are multiple water play platforms where visitors can enjoy water fights to cool off. Important Notes: 1. Not suitable for children under 1.2 meters tall or seniors over 60 years old. 2. Store electronic devices in lockers in advance (20 RMB per locker). 3. Water temperatures are lower in the afternoon, so the morning sessions (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM) are more comfortable. Nearby farmhouses offer delicious Liuyang steamed dishes, perfect for replenishing energy before heading back!
